[Rigid osteosynthesis with the AO plate and Phemister's spongioplasty in secondary treatment of diaphyseal gunshot fractures].
In prospective study, in 160 injured with diaphyseal gunshot fractures (DGF), in secondary treatment phase, there were applied rigid osteosynthesis by AO plate and spongioplasty with iliac graft by Phemister assuming that this method would provide good functional results. The average age of injured was 32.25 years, and average postsurgical follow-up period was 32.5 months. The fracture healing was achieved in 93.7% injured while pseudoarthrosis developed in 6.25%. Osteomyelitis, as the second significant complication, appeared in 8.12% cases. Good functional results were achieved in 55.62%, satisfying in 36.25% while the poor result was noticed only in 8.12% cases. The applied method in DGF treatment proved to be very successful, it led to faster fracture healing, shortening of hospitalization time of the injured with better functional results and less complications compared to the other treatment methods in the secondary phase.
